Definitions
- the present invention relates to a new and useful process for producing hemiketals and hemithioketals. More particularly, the present invention relates to a process for producing certain hemiketals and hemithioketals useful in manufacturing alkyl 4,4,4-trifluoroacetoacetate or thioalkyl 4,4,4-trifluoroacetoacetate.
- U.K. specification No. 931,689 discloses the manufacture of fluorinated acetoacetic acid chlorides, wherein a fluorinated acetyl chloride is reacted with ketene, desirably in the presence of a suitable solvent.
- the present invention provides a new and useful process for making hemiketals and hemithioketals.
- the process for producing the hemiketals or hemithioketals involves bringing into reactive contact an alcohol or mercaptan and an oxetan-2-one compound having the following formula: ##STR2## wherein Hal is a halogen to produce a hemiketal or hemithioketal having the structural formula: ##STR3## where X is O or S and R is a lower alkyl, i.e., C 1 -C 12 alkyl.
- X is O or S and R is a lower alkyl, i.e., C 1 -C 12 alkyl.
- mercaptan is used as a reactant, it is preferred that the reaction be carried out in the presence of a catalytic amount of a tertiary amine.
- the preferred source of the oxetan-2-one compound is a recovered by-product resulting from the manufacture of fluorinated acetoacetic acid chloride using a process, such as that disclosed in the above-mentioned U.K. specification.
- lower alkyl and cognates thereof, such as, “alk” etc., refers to an alkyl moiety, straight or branched chain, having from 1 to about 12 carbon atoms.
- ketene is reacted with trifluoroacetyl halide, preferably trifluoroacetyl chloride, in a solvent and at a reduced temperature to produce trifluoroacetoacetyl halide.
- trifluoroacetyl halide preferably trifluoroacetyl chloride
- the following equation depicts the reaction: ##STR4## wherein Hal is a halogen, such as Cl, Br or F.
- Hal is a halogen, such as Cl, Br or F.
- Hal is a halogen, such as Cl, Br or F.
- the reaction mixture can be distilled to separate the Oxetan-2-one compound, solvent and trifluoroacetoacetate compound one from the other.
- the distillation is carried out at a reduced pressure to minimize the production of unwanted by-products.
- the oxetan-2-one compound that is recovered from the distillation operation is converted to a hemiketal or hemithioketal by reacting the same with excess lower alkyl monohydric alcohol or mercaptan, respectively.
- the mol ratio of alcohol or mercaptan to oxetan-2-one compound is in the order of about 5:1 to 1:1.
- a preferred ratio is 3.5:1 to 2.5:1.
- the mixture can be heated at reflux to convert the oxetan-2-one compound into a hemiketal or hemithioketal in accordance with the following illustrative equation: ##STR6## where X, R and Hal are as defined above.
- the resulting product is 4,4,4-trifluoro-3-ethoxy-3-hydroxy-butanoic acid, ethyl ester, where ethanol is used as a reactant or is 4,4,4-trifluoro-3-thiomethyl-3-hydroxy-butanoic acid, methylthioester where methyl mercaptan is used as a reactant.
- the hemiketal or hemithioketal is converted to alkyl or S-alkyl trifluoroacetoacetate.
- This can be accomplished by stripping off excess alcohol or mercaptan from the reaction mixture and, at the same time, cleaving off the alkoxy or thioalkyl radical from the hemiketal in the form of an alcohol or mercaptan.
- the stripping and cleaving are carried out preferably at atmospheric pressure at a reflux ratio of 10:1 to 1:1, most preferably about 5:1.
- the operation is preferably done at or near atmospheric pressure because temperatures above about 90° C. are needed to crack the hemiketal to the desired alkyl or S-alkyl 4,4,4-trifluoroacetoacetate.
- the trifluoroacetoacetate resulting from the conversion of the hemiketal or hemithioketal can be combined with the trifluoroacetoacetate resulting from the reaction wherein the oxetan-2-one compound is produced as a by-product and thereafter used in the preparation of herbicidal pyridine compounds.
- a product previously regarded as a waste product in the manufacturing of trifluorinated acetoacetic compounds from a fluorinated acetyl halide and ketene is converted to a product useful in preparing additional quantities of trifluoroacetoacetate, thereby increasing significantly the overall yield of trifluoroacetoacetate by about 5-10%.
- oxetan-2-one compound to a thioate for best results should be carried out in the presence of a catalytic amount of a tertiary amine, such as triethylamine.
- a catalytic amount may range from about 5-30% of the weight of mercaptan employed.
- the mol ratio of oxetan-2-one compound to amine can range from about 1.5:1 to 0.5:1.
- tertiary amines useful in the promotion of the reaction between the oxetan-2-one compound and mercaptan include trimethylamine, triethylamine, tributylamine, tri-t-butylamine, N,N-diisopropylethylamine, 4-dimethyl-aminopyridine, 1,8-diazabicyclo(5.4.0)undec-7-ene, 1,5-diazabicyclo(4.3.0)non-5-ene, 1,4-diazabicyclo(2.2.2)octane.
